The North American in discussing
the flag business observes very point
eddy: 1t should be suggested to those
organs who are crying down the flag
talk with a great waste of ink, paper
and ingenuity, and who are constant
ly accusing Republican journals of
political motives in keeping it up,
when in reality they are keeping 1t UP
themselves, that it will serve them no
good purpose to sneer at the soldier az
they have been doing. It will not
help their defence of the President to
say that Gen. Fairchild can have the
tattered flags for shroud, or that the
Grand Army boys may have them to
make panties for their children. They
will more fully realize the force of
their excellent irony when they see
finally where it hits. Theirs Is the
bitter talk that comes from the pot
that is black, and it is their desperate
effort to turn blunder to- account
which is keeping up the discussion.
They talk of Republican malice and
plots with the Juror Of outraged inno-
eence. They shoVd expend their

The way in which glass may best
be cut with scissors is told in the
Pottery Gazette, London: Glass
may be cut under water with great
ease, to almost any shape, with a
pair of shears or strong scissors. Two
things are necessary for success. First
the glass must be kept quite level in
the water while the scissors are APP
piled; and secondly, to avoid risk, it
is better to perform the cutting by
taking off small pieces at the corners
and along the edges, and to reduce
the shape gradually to that required
The softer glasses cut the best, and
the scissors need not be very sharp.

The War Department declines to
issue further permits for the intro
duction of alcoholic liquors into
Alaska, wine for sacramental pur-
poses excepted.
The saloon men in Sioux City are
badly in the tolls, and day by day
they are slowly but surely being in
extricably entangled, Their saving
witness in the Haddock case now
contesses that he was bribed by the
liquor interest, and the defense is left
without resources. When the fight
began there were one hundred an d
seventeen saloons; now there are but
fifty, and they are open under diff
culties.
Spirituous liquors are not necessi-
ty either in medicine or the arts. DR.
James r. Nichols says that if all the
brandies, whiskies, wines, and malt
liquors which now exist we're sudden
ly destroyed, and there could be no
further production, 10 class but
dipsomaniacs would suffer any pain
or distress for a single hour. If these
beverages are sometimes useful as diff
fusible stimulants, they are oftener a
bar to recuperation, no matter what
may be the ailment.
A Clergyman writes to the Boston

decanters, said: Twill you take
sherry or port, sir?.' The parson
smiled at, not with, the beadle. who
then explained that about three
hundred years ago good woman of
the parish, dying, left certain sum
for the purchase "of wine and sweet
cakes for the clergy" and since that
time wine and cakes have been regu-
Iarly supplied at each service.

Low Prices High Wages Small Profits


From Edward Atkinson's essay in
the August Century under tue above
title, accompanied hy charts, we
quote the ksllnwing Introduction:
The minds of many persons have
been and are greatly disturbed be-
cause there has been in recent years
a great reduction in the prices of
nearly all the leading articles OF COM
merce, the principal decline dating
substantially from the year 1873.
This decline In prices began soon af-
ter the war in the United States, but
the general decline in all countries on
o specie basis may be dated from 1873
BY whatever standard prices are
measured (and there are many care
fully conf led tables) tho average Is
found to be lower at the present time
than at any period since q date
anterior to the year 1850, in which
year the great supply Of gold from
California, and u little later from
Australia, began to effect the volume
of the money metals of the world.
In most OF the discussions OF the
money question this great fall In
prices has been treated as II it were a
misfortune, and 1t is often held that
any measure of legislation ought to
be adopted which might tend to check
1t. Isnot this very partial and
one-sided view of the subject?
Some one has wisely and Willingly
said that cit does much matter what
happens to the millionaire--how is 1t
with the mlllion?"
lit shall appear that out OF TINS
great reduction in prices the millions
have gained higher wages; that
hundreds of thousands Of families
have gained better homes and greater
comfort in life; while those who have
suffered temporary loss have been
only the rich who have been In
capable Of adjusting themselves to
the new conditions, or the unskliled
poor who have been unable to grasp
the greater opportunities for welfare
which invention has offered them,
then may we not come to the con-
clusion that diminished profits and
low prices are merely the compile
ment of higher wages aud lower cost,
and are, therefore, most certain IN
dications of general progress from
poverty to welfare, yet still leaving
the problem open, how to help the
unskilled poor?
It will he remembered that it has
been stated that SO far as the great
mass of the people of this and of other
lands are concerned, about one-half
the cost ofliving is the price paid for
the materials for food, the cost OF food
to common laborers who have
families to support being as rule
much more than One-half their IN
come.
The question Of Interest to those
who assume to be strictly 1.-THE work
ing classes IS not so riuch what the
price of the necessities of life may be,
as it is how many portions of fuel,
and clothing each one can buy at the
retail shops in which they deal, aid
how good shelter each one can pro-
cure for one days or one years earn
ings. In other words, what is, OF
what has been, the value of days
labor when converted into the COM
modities which are necessary to ex-
| istsnce?

self some twenty PAGES in front OF me,
went to work to make target OF me, the
missiles used being heavy, jagged stones
which his brother collected for him be-
meath the cliffs. The first stone missed
me, but gradually, as Francois warmed 10
his work and aimed with greater precision,
thew began to tell. One broke my wrist;
another buried itself in my ribs; the third
crushed nv nose, knocked out my teeth
and tore the flesh from my cheeks.
"From this on knew no more-l had

"When I came to myself again was
resting against the pine that was to have
been my gibbet; Bijou was licking the
blood from my face, and before me, lying
on the snow, two dead bodies-Petlt
Francois and my own corporal. The lieu
tenant who had been on guard at the
Villemay bent over me, rubbing me as hard
as he could, trying to restore me 10 con-
seriousness.
~Do not talk, Abram," said he, as I
struggled to speak; 1.-THE villains have
their deserts, and have decamped with
shot in their wings. They cannot go far;
as for the corporal, he is done for, Fran
co.'s also. My bayonet Went through his

when we got to you; but must go 10
saint Bergues for aid. Bijou, who saved
YOU, will stay with you. will wrap you

yolyer; if those scoundrels return and ap"
proach you pepper them well:
In due time he returned with re-enforce-
ments and filters. They placed me on
one of them, and the corporal and Petit
Francois on the other. The lieutenant,
after seeing that / was safely dispatched
to the post at Cure, departed in search OF
the contrabandist's brothers. They were
caught on the frontier of France, tried and
sentenced to the galleys for life.
II was three months in the hospital OF
the Good Samaritans, and when l came
out of it my face was so ugly that Rosette,
my fiancee, would have nothing to do
| with me, and married the grocer OF Des
Rousses, well known receiver OF stolen
goods, though we could never prove 1t.
"The government stitched stripe upon
| the coat sleeve of the lieutenant, greater
qualification than 100 franc bill, and al
| lowed to the widow Of the corporal hall the
value of the merchandise which had dis
covered in the cavern.
Gas for myself was made appointe

and too much disfgured to care to be any

lieutenant called him, had succeeded II
crawling through the crevice at the BASE
of the cavern wall, and running to the
post of Cure had found it deserted by al
save the sentry. Returning toward the
| Crouaz, he had followed the trail OF th'
lieutenant and corporal, who, suspectinl
that misfortune had happened, started
| out to find me.
"The gendarme corps of Vaud hav,

Lake Minnewaska is one of the
most beautiful places in Minnesota,
and were it not for the fact that a
sleepy-headed and non-progressive
people own the place, it would long
ago have been dotted with cottages
and have been one of the most popu-
lar summer resorts in Minnesota.
But as summer resort, GIenwood
and vicinity will always exist upon a
very small scale, unless the TRIBUNE
can say enough to wake people up
over there and get them to rustling,
or until the present property owners
die and make room for others who
have more enterprise.
